    Chimes/alarm

    Battery in the alarm sounder....... that deserves a little further research. No parking sensors fitted It's occurring during a normal drive as well, may actually have been like this for a few days as another driver used this car. It appears random and it's certainly annoying mid corner. (I'm...

    FK front struts

    That's pretty well what I ended up doing Mark. Save from the bolt through the inner wing which had previously been butchered and has been cut off. I've slotted the reservoir carrier. Saves removal of bolt. Just slacken. I fitted new bolts as a matter of course. Rear getting some attention next...

    Chimes/alarm

    I'm getting a string of chimes or 'beeps' every time I turn the ignition on. There is around nine chimes in very fast succession quite difficult to count them precisely. I can find anything in the owners book about this and I've no experience to guide me so I'm feeling a little stupid. I've...

    FK front struts

    After a delay the Struts are fitted. What a difference! I've covered another 800miles on these new ones and I'm very pleased with performance. Unbelievably good value. LHS is a 15min job and as the wishbones etc can be left in place the rhs is fine right up till the upper fittings. I've still...

    Anti roll bar options?

    Thanks guys, good info and just the start I need. I have to be a bit careful with the lowering and lower profile tyres are not the best idea so I need to make the best of what's left. S

    Anti roll bar options?

    My A2 has all the glass in the roof you could imagine and worn struts. I know it's not a go-cart but in the interest of improvement in the corners I was wondering if more knowledgeable members have explored any OEM ARB options? Is the same part used on Sport? What about using the bar from the...

    FK front struts

    I'm going to order a set a Paul as they must be better than what is fitted now. I'll stick to standard front springs. Report back when they arrive and I get them fitted. (New clutch today let's me play with the new engine map - it's absolutely fine. Not buzzy Nice and relaxed eco-motoring)

    FK front struts

    Can anyone verify if the following parts on the FK website will fit the A2? Sport shock absorber High Tec VW Polo 5 9N Yr. 11.2001 - (front) part FKZZVW22 They are cheap enough to take a risk on damping. My hope is that they would do until I decide the best route to go on all four corners...

    Headlight protectors ZGB8Z0072100 LH & RH

    Found in the lower boot. I'm lucky the last owner didn't pull off the mud flaps. The guards are not going back on my car and this is the wrong area to sell them.

    Glow Plugs replaced but hard start!!!

    I wonder if this fault was resolved by a change of drain plug? I have similar symptoms on my 75 tdi. Starts first turn then lean cut. Crank crank crank and away she goes. Only 1st thing in the morning. It's yet another thing to check and the list is growing. I imagine I'll check both...

    My A2 hyper mile gt1479va build (target 850kgs)

    Love it! Cracking project. Ironic that you are taking a bench seat out and I need an A2 with three in the back. What's the drama about a 3 for 2 change then? Are the A2 shells not fitted with all the fixing points?
